EMBRACING THE HEAT, Mixed Media on Canvas, 48"H x 60"W, 1.5"D, 2024

"Embracing the Heat," a captivating mixed media artwork measures 60" x 48" and skillfully marries acrylic paint with textured fabric and natural elements. The composition is rich with abstract forms and intricate textures that create a dynamic visual experience. Earthy tones dominate the palette, featuring shades of brown, beige, and touches of golden yellow. These colors come together to evoke the warm, arid landscape of the desert.

The piece is a masterful blend of organic shapes and linear patterns, showcasing a sense of movement and depth. Textured layers and varying intensities of color give the surface a complex, engaging quality. There is a compelling contrast between the dark, rough-edged forms and the lighter, more fluid areas, creating a balanced and harmonious composition.

What sets this artwork apart is the unique use of hand-pulled burlap and natural palm bark fabric integrated with the acrylic medium and paint. This technique adds a tangible variety and a tactile dimension to the piece. Inspired by the summer heat and the play of light over desert sand dunes, this artwork captures the essence of a sunlit landscape with an artistic elegance that invites viewers to explore its many layers and details.

Whether hanging horizontally or vertically, Embracing the Heat is an exciting, bold  composition of color, texture and shapes that will make a statement in any setting.
